Excellent standard of Dancing, it's unusual to get a hall full of dancers that remember the dance. Very well done to you all, very enjoyable.

I love the variation at 0:13 by the third couple in the left-hand set closest to the camera. Now I know what to do when otherwise third couple is standing about like a couple of fence posts!

The music was first recorded in about 1986 by Jim McLeod and his band who were at the Hydro in Dunblaine. Jim and his band came to the Stone Mountain Highland Games for many years, playing this tune for the dancers at the Tattoo. It was a particular favorite with American audiences and dancers. Whille not traditional Scottish tunes, we are a world-wide group, and this is a really fund tune to dance to. Jan in Atlanta

I adored this Dance and Tune since the first time I saw / heard it. No surprise to discover, as I have just done a mo ago, that the Band was led by Iain MacPhail. One of those, where each Dancer has to have done his or her homework, if irreparable chaos is to be avoided.

I'm sorry but who said it was normal. It was dance in an evening of dances and it was one that was captured on film. It was to show how fun Scottish Country Dancing can be - it is not all stuck up as some people would have us believe. I am, however, indebted to you for giving me the names of the tunes.

@kilteddave Have a look at the comment I posted. Jim McLeod drew up the arrangement and recorded this in about 1986 or so. He called the tune The Stone Mountain Reel. Jan

As I'm sure you should know that not ALL Scottish Country dances have to stick to just Scottish music and tunes!

Shame you don't know much about Scottish Country Dancing or you'd know that there are many different tunes and variations and you'd also have heard of the band that are playing.
